[quote=Anonymous]Not a super common scenario at all to walk out the door in 6 years with significant net worth (or really any net worth). It's a function of law school loans (if you have them), along with the fact that this is the age when lots of people are saving a down payment on a house and paying for a wedding -- by the time those things are done, like the PPs you're lucky if you break even at 0 or like 50k or 100k when you look at your remaining loans vs. assets such as 401k/home equity. For me and everyone I know, the "real" saving and net worth building started at our post biglaw jobs -- and obviously goes MUCH slower since most people take a pay cut at least initially (and sometimes forever if you can't build back up to being an executive in house or partner at a midlaw firm etc.).[/quote]
